Figure 1 The number of patients in each subset of total cases is presented for the historical control period (C) and the demonstration project period (D). DOA cases were considered “dead-on-arrival” and resuscitation was either not initiated or was terminated in the field. DNR individuals had a valid do-not-resuscitate order in effect. The cause of an arrest was classified as Cardiac, Non-Cardiac or Unknown (information insufficient). An arrest was considered “Witnessed” if collapse was either seen or heard. Initial rhythms were designated as shockable or non-shockable. The neurologic CPC scores for survivors are presented.
